Full details

The Saucony Trainer 80 is for adults seeking a blend of retro style and responsive cushioning in a versatile trainer. Its key benefit lies in the innovative EVA foam midsole, offering a softer feel reminiscent of its 1978 origins.

FAQs

What makes the Trainer 80's cushioning unique?

The Trainer 80 was revolutionary in 1978 for its use of high-density EVA foam in the midsole, which provided a softer and more responsive feel than previous shoe designs.

Are these shoes suitable for modern running?

While they offer comfortable cushioning for everyday wear and light jogging, they lack the advanced technology and support found in specialized modern running shoes for intense training or long distances.

How do I find the right size?

Refer to the size chart provided by Saucony or consult the UK sizing guide. It is recommended to try them on if possible, or ensure your foot measurements align with the listed size.

Can I wear these with athletic socks?

Yes, the Trainer 80 is designed to be worn with various types of socks, including athletic socks, for added comfort and fit.

What is the main difference between the original Trainer 80 and this reproduction?

This is a faithful reproduction of the original, maintaining its retro charm and core cushioning technology. The primary differences are the modern manufacturing techniques and updated colorways available.

How should I clean the white colorway?

For the white colorway, use a soft brush and a mild soap and water solution applied with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or machine washing to preserve the material and color.

Troubleshooting

Uncomfortable fit

Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. If the shoe feels too tight or loose, try a different size or consider using thicker/thinner socks.

Squeaking sound from sole

This can sometimes occur due to friction between sole components. Try walking on different surfaces to see if it subsides. A small amount of talcum powder under the insole might help if the squeak originates there.

Reduced cushioning over time

The EVA foam naturally compresses with use. For enhanced comfort, ensure the original insoles are in place, or consider replacing them with aftermarket insoles.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Revolutionary cushioning for its time, still offers a comfortable feel.
  • Authentic retro aesthetic appeals to sneaker enthusiasts.
  • Durable construction ensures longevity.
  • Versatile for casual wear and light athletic activities.

Cons

  • May lack the advanced technical features of modern performance running shoes.
  • The retro style might not align with all fashion preferences.
  • Sole cushioning is responsive but not as highly engineered as contemporary maximalist shoes.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The Saucony Trainer 80 requires no specific setup; they are ready to wear straight out of the box. Ensure you select the correct size for optimal comfort and fit.

Compatibility: These trainers are designed for general adult use. They are compatible with a wide range of casual and athletic apparel. Their unisex design makes them suitable for all genders.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning: Use a soft brush or cloth to remove loose dirt. For stains, use a mild soap and water solution with a damp cloth. Avoid machine washing or soaking.
